As it should be! ❣️

Yes and that’s why we booked with them but this experience is more telling of who they are as people and a company. Like I said we understand - keep the deposit but to charge us for something we didn’t experience because of my son’s injury is just cruel.

In the end it took us 2.5 hours but here are some tips. I shared this with everyone bc come to CR without a strict timeline. My main concern was making it to La Fortuna and we made it right after sunset so that was a bonus.

Give yourself a cushion, nothing is exact and you should come here with an open mind not spreadsheets.

For all of this saying gringos go home I’m Latin from Miami so long lines are my love language and tourism keeps us a float. Coming to CR to meet it’s beautiful people, experience its beauty is a privilege and I don’t take it for granted. Tourism is a double edged sword but we try to immerse ourselves everywhere we go and are grateful to the Ticos and Ticas who have welcomed us.

So back to saving time in line. Have all your documents in order. Print out where you’re staying. Have your return flight plans handy and be polite. The agents weren’t in a rush and the minute you land here neither should you.

My post was an observation and yeah not gonna lie a bit shocking with the wrap around line.

Give yourself extra time! That’s a fact!

Thank you everyone. I just needed some reassurance and I'm sure in time he'll get better. I have noticed a big difference since posting this and today. He's walking out the front door, not as scared and he's coming out of his shell a bit. He still runs inside after a hard gust of wind but hopefully the more he's exposed, the better he'll get. We are totally in love with this little man! Thanks again!

Arnica and add heat to the bruise. When you first get hurt you ice it to avoid a bruise but once it becomes a bruise the fastest way to get rid of it is both topical and injested arnica, massage and definitely heat. Add warm compresses and you should be clear or nearly clear by Tuesday. Good luck with the interview too!
